Like a Reality TV Show of My Life, 10 November 2006
8/10
Author: MatthewTie from North Carolina

I must have been performing and directing improv for too long. I feel like I've known every character in this movie and like I've experienced almost every situation. Truth in comedy, indeed.

YesAnd is not just the story of what it takes to put together an improv troupe. It is a "might as well be true" history of a group. Over the course of my group's existence (founded in 1995) we've run into all these situations. I've auditioned all these people. And I've mistakenly cast some of them.

Bravo. Simply bravo. The movie I would make if were to make this exact movie. (And the DVD has deleted scenes with commentary as to why they were deleted, sorely missing in many DVD releases.)
